^ Hamilton has its own airport, and people still choose to go to pearson because of the major airlines and the convenience of having 24 hr transit and rideshare to there. The mistake that they made is not expanding further so it could handle the capacity of the majors, and the attraction of actually having people choosing this airport (right now, the airport is located kms away from the downtown, in complete farm lands, on a 2 lane highway). I would also prefer an expansion of this airport, rather than forgetting it and building a whole new airport and its not like Hamilton isn't a populous mid tier city already and it could also attract people from KW/Cambridge/Guelph/Grimsby/etc.
Pickering airport can always be built at a later date when we really need it and when Durham matches or surpasses the population of the Halton/Hamilton Region
